Az chats to Lateriser and Zophar ahead of FPL Gameweek 16

In the absence of both Andy and Mark, Az takes the reins in this week’s Premium Members video, which is a laid-back look at the key Fantasy Premier League (FPL) talking points ahead of Gameweek 16.

He is joined by Lateriser and Zophar, and this video sees all three managers nestled snugly inside the top 100k.

The trio discuss some of the key questions ahead of the deadline, including which Manchester United and West Ham assets to consider and their preferences within the Manchester City midfield.

They also look at the fixture swings for various teams, and we check out their teams ahead of Friday’s deadline, with two of the managers considering a captaincy that isn’t Mohamed Salah (£13.1m)…

    Is Kane to Ronaldo worth a hit? Currently starting ESR & Jota with Gilmour only bench…

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Considering that, y ESR.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Yes

    2. Ibralicious
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Wait for a little more clarity on Jota and ESR. If any one of them is confirmed out, I'd pull the trigger

    How many games will Tottenham miss?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      I’d guess 2

    wc team…thoughts?
    plan is in two weeks to do James + Dennis > Antonio + 4.0m defender

    DDG (4.0)
    TAA Cancelo James Dalot (Coufal)
    Salah Jota Gundo Bowen (Brownhill)
    Ronaldo King (Dennis)

    1. DOCLES
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Debating Gundo/Bernardo/Mount myself, are you set on Gundogan?

  5. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Using 1FT to do Son >> Bilva, then:

    1. Raphinha >> Bowen / Mount / Foden / Rashford
    2. Jimenez >> King
    3. Raphinha Jimenez >> Brownhill Ronaldo (-4)
    4. Save 1FT

  6. Drogba Legend
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Have fallen 50k last two weeks to drop down to 63k OR. Help appreciated. is Jota out?

    Ramsdale
    TAA - Cancelo - Rudiger - James
    Salah - Jota - Saka
    Toney**-Ronaldo - Dennis

    4.0 - Raphinha - Livra - Brownhill

    0FT. .7 ITB

    A) G2G - play raph/Livra
    B) Jota out > Bilva (-4)
    C) Toney out > ?? (-4)
    D) Something else?

    Cheers

    1. Steiger
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Don't know why you'd take out Jota. Stick and play Raph.

  7. C_G
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    took a -4 last weekend and now in a fix with Sanchez, Toney and Son, what to do? 0 ITB

    Sanchez, Steele

    White Rudi TAA Cancelo Livra

    Gallagher Salah Son Jota Bilva

    Toney Watkins Dennis

    should I take another -4?

  8. Freshy

    2. Costa Nostra

      No..triple captained Jefferson though!

  9. Sz21
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Is this bench too weak on a WC?
    I prefer a weak bench but just worried that this taking it too far. Not sure where to make changes tbh. Not fancying Guaita. Could sacrifice James maybe.

    DDG.
    James, Cancelo, TAA.
    Salah, Bowen, Jota, Bernardo, Gundo.
    King, Ronaldo.
    Gunnarsson, Diop, Williams, Locadia.
    0.0m ITB.

    2. Amartey Partey

    Current team (on a -4)

    DDG (Sanchez)
    TAA Cancelo Livramento (Reguilon Johnson)
    Salah Jota Bernardo Raphinha Brownhill
    Antonio King (Kane)

    A. Keep it as it is
    B. Kane to Ronaldo for another -4
    C. Hit the wildcard button

    1. MagicMessi
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      B for me

  17. Every Point Matters
    • 4 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    again, which 3 to start ?
    a) Antonio
    b) Alonso
    c) Gallagher
    d) Dennis

    1. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Drop Gallagher

    2. PastaFasul
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      a, b, d

    3. RogDog_jimmy
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yep. I got those four, Gallagher is first bench for me.

    4. Every Point Matters
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      thanks all, nice to see 3 in agreement 🙂

  18. Boomerang V
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Son, Reg -> Bilva, Cancelo ?

    Good move?

    I can’t afford Pep roulette benching because I have no subs at all…

    1. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yes!
      for free? even better

      1. Boomerang V
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        -4 here.

        That or play 10 men (or less)

        1. FPL_Crisis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          -4 pretty much pays off this week and if Spurs miss another game then you're well setup
          I'd do it

  19. Boomerang V
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Would you rather have Bilva or Mount long term?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Both are probably going to be short term picks, can't see them performing beyond December. Mount looks more shorter term as compared to B. Silva. So Silva for me.

  20. RogDog_jimmy
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Think I’ve managed to get through this crazy week with no hits and rolling my transfer. All it cost me was a terrible game week last year.

    Ramsdale
    TAA, Cancelo, James, Alonso
    Salah, Jota, Rashford
    Vardy, Antonio, Dennis

    Foster, Gallagher, Livramento, Brownhill
    0.0 itb, 1 ft

    Feel pretty good with my bench to cover random absences.

    Good luck all.

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Jota and Vardy might be issues.

      1. RogDog_jimmy
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Maybe. Maybe not.
        I’m not chasing rumors anymore. Cost me enough this season overreacting too quickly.

        Vardy is 100% first choice so i think he either starts or comes off the bench.

        I have seen no real news on Jota.

        Gallagher is an awesome first sub. Livramento is just fine as a second.

        2 ft for mid week is super useful too.

  21. fish&chips
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Play livra or Jimenez?

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Jimmy

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years

      Jimenez

    3. fish&chips
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      Thanks lads. That's what I'm on

  22. Eleven Hag
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    G2g? Is the bench order fine too?

    De gea
    Taa Cancelo Rudiger Alonso
    Salah(c) Jota BSilva Bowen
    Ronaldo King
    - Borja Livra Gilmour

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah, can't do much with that with that bench

      1. Eleven Hag
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah 🙂

    2. De Gea is GOAT
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Great team!

  23. Mo Mane Mo Salah
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Play Wilson or Dennis, obvs first off bench if Jota hurt

    DDG
    Trent Cancelo James
    Salah Bilva Mount Bowen Jota
    Antonio ***

    Thanks!

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson

  24. De Gea is GOAT
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Cancelo (C) too risky? Cheers guys 😀

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      His attacking threat has dropped slightly, might still work due to good chance of CS.

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      3 blanks on the bounce, you have better options.

      1. De Gea is GOAT
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Definitely better options out there. Thanks for bringing me back to earth

  25. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    With Sanchez and Foster GKs I might as well do -4 Sanchez>Bachmann then gives 2 cheap GKs from same team and Watford decent fixtures

    1. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Why would you do that? Foster out until mid January so you only have 1 keeper at least until then.

      In light of recent events I am looking at going the other way, move on Steele to Bachmann and keep Sanchez, you'd be much better off shipping Foster for Bachmann imo.

      In saying all that, with a hit involved I'd probably just cop the zero on the chin.

      1. waldo666
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Disregard the first sentence, makes no sense!

    2. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      2 keepers same side apart from Foster missing games? just seen what covid can do.

  26. De Gea is GOAT
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    I agree. Had a good rest mid week too. Could it be the week to go differential

    Cancelo TAA James (Duffy) (Livramento)
    Salah (C) Jota Raphinha Mbuemo (Brownhill)
    Kane Pukki Antonio

    2 ft, 0.6 itb

    Do I go Kane to CR7 or do Kane to King and then have money itb for something else???

    1. Mozumbus
      • 2 Years

      Kane Pukki to Ronaldo Dennis/King if funds allow

    How does this WC team look:

    Guita Bachman
    TAA Cancelo Rudigar Coufal White
    Salah Silva Bowen Allan Brownhill
    Ronaldo Antonio Dennis

    0.1itb, TV suffering due to late decisions

  29. sunzip14

    Lukaku or Ronaldo in place of Kane?

    1. Mozumbus
      • 2 Years
